Mate, Who would be attacking Transatlantic shipping lanes?

the same people that were before you fucking cuck

Somali pirates were a thing not very long ago.

Fucking british people god damn you used to rule the world what the fuck happened?

This from the guy who lives in the former empire to fill this role... are you wilfully ignorant of history or have you had it hidden from you by your own school system?

I proudly stand against adventure wars, proxy wars, "liberations" and regime change. I would happily see the US pull back from all these things, and under Trump we will. You're welcome.

Or or and hear me out, we become the pirates

Your anus is a shipping lane

The US very well could fuck over all foreign nations by simply providing security to ONLY shipping vessels of US origin. The international normie pleb America-haters have no idea how badly just withholding this security function would fuck them over, and not a damn one of them has the basic intelligence to be grateful for what we do. I say we show them the world they are asking for, then wait for them to beg us for help. And then whisper... "No."

All the competent white people moved out and founded America.

Don't most cruise and container ships fly under flags of whatever is most convenient for them politically/financially (rarely the US)? I wouldn't be shocked if that cuts out the vast majority of ships that currently get security.

Fuck off ONI

Holy fucking this Batman. I was in the Navy for 12 years and let me tell you 99.99% of the time we were escorting trade/cargo ships.

Yes, I swear to god it isn't the Navy that makes dudes gay, its just the gays join the Navy. Normal dudes would just bust one out to a picture of their loved one in private, and gay guys always make a scene at meal time to show everyone that they're fucking gay and available. The drama caused by these faggots is worse than an episode of sex in the city and the straight guys always have to pay for it in the end.

>has actually caused more damage to civilian ships and ports than all pirates combined
>no one really asked them nor wanted nor needs them around except Jews

Fuck off low-IQ subversive meme-flagging shithead.

Oh no! Whatever will we do without unrestricted globalism made possible by the US Navy? The Navy should be defending the US coastline. Not playing world policeman.

The plethora of cruisers, destroyers and smaller patrol ships that actually protect shipping lanes

Playing world policemen, and being the all-powerful world police who are able exercise our discretion in use of force while securing global maritime trade is in our interest. Stop being an isolationist; embrace American imperialism, brother. MAGA worldwide!

Judaism worldwide you mean. If American Imperialism wasn't just neo cohen bullshit I would be all for it. None of that is in our interest.

That's a bad thing. You're basically enabling globalism and the rise of China.

Please explain how retreating and allowing Russia and China to control global maritime trade would be in our interest. Stop making the same mistake as the commies and falling for subversive propaganda.

What's worse on a ship, gays or women?

>safe international shipping lanes
Frankly I don't give a fuck if you have safe international shipping lanes to destroy our economy with low tier Chinese garbage propping up their bubble economy.

I fail to see why the US navy should be defending Chinese or Russian oceanic trade.

>Aircraft can't see or attack boats.

>pilots can see farther than radar+sonar

Think about this dick the next time your bitch is acting different fuck the ocean I'll grow my own niggers to pick my cotton

Reminder, the Barbary pirates were raiding random towns in Europe, kidnapping white women as sex slaves.

They even raided as far as ICELAND.

The USA stopped them.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_pirates

Der Ewige Ami

Because otherwise Russia and China will have to massively bulk up their navies to protect their interests, navies which they could use against us if SHTF.

>US Navy enforces the rule of law for everyone, therefore it's evil and should be disbanded
We should be more imperialistic, not more isolationist.

Amen. God bless the USA, savior of the White race and Western civilization! Never let Old Glory die!

Fun fact: While the Dutch were converting to Islam and joining pirates based in the Maghreb, Americans sailed across seas and oceans to exterminate Mohammedan corsair scum.

Radar sees hundreds of miles from planes dingus, only dozens from sea level, barring the low-resolution over-the-horizon radars.

Ofc cant have others defending their own interests. America must defend the whole world be they friend or foe.

Yes, but there are more gay women. Mostly gays are tolerated, but not encouraged.

Yes, absolutely. Fuck those traitorous faggots dodging taxes by flying a Liberian flag.

>We should be more imperialistic, not more isolationist.
Again neo cohen imperialism isnt a good thing.

>safe international shipping lanes
Assuming this is a good thing, if container ships from china were being torpedoed it would make american manufacturers viable again.

Take yourself and your retarded Redditspacing back where you belong.

Yes, those are all issues.

Stupid chiefs mess making people get quals prematurely.

They did that when the French English and Spain were fighting each other They were all through the coastlines.. They let it happen The Ruling Class cares not for it's people.

gross oversimplification brought to you by a retarded brainlet that doesnt underestand anything besides nitpicking trivialities

There are pirates 750 miles away attacking a ship. Do you send a cruiser or a jet plane?

I do not want the American military to be "world police". That's not what this is about. Such disingenuous strawmen are beneath the dignity of Jow Forums, user.

It's funny because, right now, the biggest US Navy operation (that we know of) is the blockading and starvation of millions of civilians in Yemen, a little bit of help from the US to their Saudi overlords.

Guess those people should have been on shipping lanes huh.

The pirate is 750 miles away because you were patrolling with an aircraft carrier instead of a patrol ship

Which is all great, but the real reason the Navy is so important is that they are basically the only service capable of keeping China in check, and they are hands down the greatest strategic threat to the US.

I've been here for 6 years and I've never posted on Reddit. You people complaining about spacing need to die, you infest every other thread with this retardation.

Thats exactly what this thread is about. Its a thread in praise of US dick wagging overseas.

>Everything that benefits Zionists hurts America
No, not everything is black and white. Sometimes we have to make compromises. If we can kill off the Jewish influences that harm this nation and turn Israel into our bitch colony, then that would be great, but until we get to that point, the status quo is better than allowing China or Russia to gain the upper hand.

International trade is a net positive so long as it is fair and balanced. Trump is actively redressing the current imbalance. That being said, local and national economies should be as self-sufficient as possible. We can do both to our benefit.

Only a Redditor gets so triggered at being called a Redditor.
Lurk more then maybe you'll learn how to type like you're not a retard.

Being in control means we get to decide who is friend or foe and respond accordingly. Who the fuck actually thinks we actively defend enemies the same as friends? Are you clinically retarded?

And a ship patrolling the area a plane can see uses a ton more fuel than a plane. A plane's radar can reach 300 miles and visual spotting is way farther than at sea level too. Not to mention the SPEED they use to patrol a wide swath. This isn't the 1800's. Planes are the eyes of the navy.

Can you provide sufficient detail to coherently argue whether this is a good thing or a bad thing? INB4: "muh suffering people" emotional arguments.

That's not very free market

I have to argue why civilians don't deserve to die of disease and mass starvation? For the same reasons you probably don't either.

>This isn't the 1800's
>Visual spotting!
Planes aren't the ones moving to the area, Redditor, the ship carrying it is.
Aircraft Carriers do not protect shipping. They are force projection.

Why do you assume being the world policeman is a good thing? If Europe were to take on its own defense including that of its own sea lanes so much the better for us all.

>the government (a third party) negotiating deals and interceding on the wishes of corporations is free market

>Think about that the next reason you bitch about the American Military being all up in your foreign business.

America is establishing high tariffs to shut down international shipping. Also, most Atlantic sea trade is pretty safe from pirates while Cap Horn shipping is protected by an international flotilla.

Personally I want all sea shipments stopped. If it cannot be produced in Europe, it shouldn’t be shipped in.

Or, y'know, someone else could do it.

It's not that hard to stamp out pirates.

>Governments exist.
>US business is affected by foreign laws.
>Our government negotiates with their government for mutually fair laws.

Nigga what? Go ahead and remove foreign governments' ability to fuck with our Free Trade and get back to me. Working within the established system is our only current option. Pretending there are no foreign governments acting in their own interests is foolish.

I am genuinely in favor of maximum possible local/national production. That being said, international trade is not inherently bad. There must be a reasonable balance.

I would honestly love to see a merc fleet arise to provide such security, but there are significant caveats to consider in how such a thing is comprised and comes to be.

>free market solves everything
>government needs to impose laws to control the market and make things """fair"""
Choose precisely one.

Nah, PMCs are shit.

It would just be an international agency with teeth under the UN or, more likely, each country would just be responsible for its own maritime security.

>Doesn't know we are engaged in cyber warfare with the chinks as we speak.

They will lose though.

Holy shit I dont give a shit about reddit spacing. Getting real fucking tired of people bitching about it. You sound intimidated by fucking reddit that you think every double carriage return must be a reddit invasion. You are copying someone else's outrage just install a browser addons to eliminate double carriage returns. I'm triggered as fuck.

sometimes government is necessary

If you're in the navy and believe that you're retarded. Patrol boats, which are infinitely more cost effective to deal with pirates, have a few fifty cals and maybe a couple of tubes of anti ship missiles. The vast majority of the US navy by tonnage and price are to deal with conventional armies. You have attack subs, hundreds of billions worth, not to torpedo pirate skimmers. You do not have two hundred million dollar AWACs to detect pirate ships. You do not have 12 billion dollar apiece aircraft carriers so you can attack pirate ships. Most of your assets have never even fired on a pirate. You escort pirates to do something inbetween wars.

What do you mean by seizing the whole earth; because I do it with a petty ship, I am called a robber, while you who does it with a great fleet are styled emperor.

Safe against what?

Aliens?

You mean the Jews controlling the US and it's navy are protecting their profits that go back to Israel?

you're right, carriers are a great deterrence.

Just turn merchant ships into war ships. Make the trade war an actual war!

>All we would have to do to KILL global trade is STOP spending so much damn money protecting your cheap products on the open seas.
the cost alone of our current navy is good enough reason to raise tariffs high enough to cut global trade in half. I don't give a fuck about selling nikes in Zimbabwe, no matter how many times shills spam the idea that we should increase global GDP at all costs.
